To install the Tekonsha Prodigy P2 Electric Brake Controller # 90885 in your 2016 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 3500 you'll need to connect the red wire from the P2 to the cold side of the Sprinter's stop light switch. This will be the wire that only shows power when the brake pedal is being pressed. The wire you're looking for is usually a pink wire with a green stripe that is located above the brake pedal under the van's dashboard. Take a look at the video I linked and skip ahead to about the 17 minute mark.
